Tissue thickness from coral cores taken in the central equatorial Pacific

Abstract

Coral cores were collected in the central equatorial Pacific (Central Pacific Coral reefs, -5 to 5 latitude, Dongsha Atoll, Curacao, Barbados, Martinique coral reefs). The thickness of the tissue in each core was measured as an index of biomass or energetic reserve.
